take the supplement Lysine- can be found in the vitamin section of your pharmacy. Dries it right up! or you could quick see a derm. and get prescribed a medicine....however, I dont know if the meds are safe during pregnancy. Good Luck!

I am terrible. I got one a couple says ago and I always bust the suckers open and take an alcohol pad to them. stings like crazy but dries them out and they only last a couple days. once it scabs put neosporin on to help healing. mine is almost gone. ice helps with the swelling.

Lysine has not been proven safe, but acyclovir is pretty well studied and considered to be safe in pregnancy (like, lots and lots of women have taken it and there has been no noticeable anything). If you can get an appt with a doctor ASAP, I'd do that (plus, you'll wanna take it afterwards to avoid giving your baby herpes). Otherwise, ice it, stay active, minimize your sugar and refined flour intake, and eat lots of fruit and veggies to keep your immune system at its best! Don't touch it too much.
